Niveau 13 : 500/1,000, 110 ante

We've been on the lookout for some large stacks, and we've spotted our first 200,000 chip stack. That is ten starting stacks compared to when this tournament began.

"christ0s707" hails from Cyprus and is sat at the table where Laszlo Bujtas was recently eliminated. We'll see where he ends up at the end of the evening's play.

Day 1 concludes at the end of Level 18.

"Pozetivchik" opened to 1,540 from the hijack and Conor "1_conor_b_1" Beresford three-bet to 4,620 on the button. The blinds folded and "Pozetivchik" called.

The flop came {q-Clubs}{10-Spades}{8-Spades} and it checked to Beresford who bet 4,064. "Pozetivchik" check-raised to 10,850 and Beresford shoved all in for 31,968. "Pozetivchik" called.

Pozetivchik: {j-Hearts}{9-Hearts}
Conor "1_conor_b_1" Beresford: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}

Beresford was behind to the flopped straight of his opponent, and had just a 4.5% chance of staying alive. However, the {a-Clubs}{q-Spades} runout improved him to a full house and he doubled up.

Tom "Pleb_method" Hayward joined as a PokerStars Twitch streamer back in 2019. And Having first played the Sunday Million back in 2010, Hayward admits that he has even had dreams about winning the prestigious tournament.

"I'm talking about literal dreams!" Hayward told PokerNews. "I would wake up in the morning after eight hours of a stressful poker grind, to find that not only have I just played eight hours of poker in my sleep, but the session hasn't even begun, and I'm already on a downswing!"

Read why Hayward thinks the Sunday Million is one of the most recognizable and reputable tournaments on the internet
